Baseball history is riddled with curses. The most famous, of course, is the Curse of the Bambino, which supposedly prevented the Red Sox from winning the World Series between 1918 and 2004, karma for trading away the greatest player of all time for cash. You will find other curses throughout baseball history, some more famous (Billy Goats, Black Sox) than others. A couple of other baseball curses you may not know about:
- Some Clevelanders think they haven’t won the World Series since 1948 because they traded Rocky Colavito for Harvey Kuenn in 1960. Yes, that Harvey Kuenn.
